Sephora Haul + First Impression

I while ago, I made an order on Sephora. So yeah, I hauled more, but it wasn't recent so I am okay, right? Haha. I am trying not too buy so much makeup anymore and actually use what I have!

Because I have been so obsessed with Illamasqua I purchased two more Illamasqua products, and I also purchased some Tarino Tarantino stuff that was on sale. Yum~ sales are always awesome.

1. Cream Pigment in 'Bedaub' ($24)

I have heard great things about these creme pigments, and I just had to try one! I chose this color because it is unique and I don't have anything like it. I love mint anything, and this is a true mint green color. The texture is so cool: it is matte and creamy. Not only is the color unique, but the concept of these is really unique. You can use them on your eyes, lips, cheeks, and body. This can also be used as a color corrector for redness.
If you use this on the eyes though, make sure to put a primer on the bottom so it won't crease.

2.Precision Ink liner in 'Glister' ($27.50)

Described as an "opalescent nude" and I have to agree with that description. It is a liquid eyeliner that is a nude color and has a lilac sheen. I have never seen anything like it this! I swear, Illamasqua has such unique products! I would never spend this much money on an eyeliner unless it was as unique as this shade.
This has been called an 'anti-eyeliner' because it is supposed to really brighten the eyes and give the illusion of bigger and wider looking eyes.
The eye liner packaging reminds me a lot of the Lancome Artliners.

*As you may know, I am giving away two TT products in my giveaway. The next two I got for myself :D These were on sale for really cheap, and were a great deal!

3.Tarina Tarantino Victorian Punk Gloss ($5)

I love the color of this. It is also not sticky. I do HATE how TT glosses smell though. They smell really gross D:<
But the packaging is super cute!

4. Tarina Tarantino Candy Cameo Eyeshadow

Like the gloss, I absolutely love the packaging. It comes in a color matching satchel ^_^
The color is really pretty; a cotton candy pink with slight shimmers. The color is a little sheer, but definitely buildable. I am not going to lie to you guys. The main reason I got this is because I love anything cameo, and this was just waaay too cute to pass up.

Swatches

Punk Gloss / Cameo eyeshadow / Cream Pigment / Precision Ink

In the picture below, you can see the lilac sheen of the Precision Ink much better.

Extras
I also got this for free with a VIP code. It is a Makeup Forever sample goody bag :D It comes with a sampe of the HD powder, smokey lash mascara, lip gloss, and an aqua eyes liner.
